Well.This happened in my village.
CoronaVirusi kuja sasa Hawa makarao wamekuwa too much, say three much.
Bars are ‘closed’ so alternative source of alkoho is pombe haramu.This is a result of dwindling jobs pia so the village hustler has to make ends meet in any way.
My guy here in the village decides to deal in pombe tamaduni.
Fast forward two months post corona jamaa akasikia amefinywa saaanaaa bana.Local nyumba kumi na maaskari bana are taking in cash in the thousands.Anyone peddling alkoho has to ‘see them’.Ocs naye anakula pesa ya fombe every Saturday is payday for him.
His minions wanakujanga everytym mtu anaskia hana pesa ya nyama kwake.
Walichosha huyo jamaa.
Back to the hekaya;
This peddie used to do brew and ndom.Alikuwa amechoka kupeana hongo kwa mamBang’a.
One fine night, after the boys n gals in blue n whatever jungle wear they clad, had gone to kuchapa watu na miti ya jembe at 9pm in the name of curfew, akaingia Polis steshen stealth mode akapata Cruiser hapo, removed the battery and music system.Then he saw a baiskeli hapo nje, akachukua.Ikambeba Hadi kwake.
So on the following very early morning, maD- wakashtukia the battery ain’t present.Followed the tracks to that guy’s shamba (it had rained).
Guy got caught, FF akafikishwa mahakamani.
Kujitetea akaambia judgiste
“Ni vizuri nimefika hapa.Nilishindwa kabisa vile nitakupata tuongee.Hawa maaskari wetu ni walevi na kazi yao Ni kufukuza watu town eti ni kafew, Kisha wezi wabaki wakiiba town maduka za watu zinavunjwa ovyo ovyo.Kuchukua hongo ndio kazi, kisha wajifungie kwa vilabu mchana mzima wakikunywa pesa zetu (and he mentioned the clubs heheee-thats how we got the OCPDs memo). Mheshimiwa, mi nauza pombe haramu lakini sijawahi letwa kwako,Kwanini? Sababu hawa Askari wote ni wavivu na ni walevi.Kazi yao ni hongo tu.Ingekuwa nauawa ningesaidikaje kwa hiyo steshen, na wote walikuwa wameenda kuchapa watu kwa market eti ndio waende nyumbani.”
Judjiste closed the case, akamwachilia to save face.
He still brews BTW.No D- dares go collect ‘cess’ from him anymore
